This dark, subterranean watering hole on Commercial was the very first bar Jamie W and I patronized once we landed in P-Town. For some wishful reason, I thought it was a full-out gay bar, but no, when we heard the booming voice of the drunken slattern at the bar, we knew it was a place that welcomed anybody and everybody. Nothing wrong with that but some show tunes would've been nice. We soon realized P-Town doesn't really have straight bars, just different flavors of gay ones. The bartender was friendly, but the vibe was off for us. We weren't into pool or ping-pong but still made time for a couple of their signature cocktails in paper cups, the $16 Margarita for Jamie and the $14 Blue Hawaiian for me (Photo 2). They were on the watery side, but hey, the evening was young. COCKTAILS - 3 stars...not quite the kick we were looking for AMBIANCE - 2.5 stars...the rec room dungeon vibe wasn't quite our scene SERVICE - 3.5 stars...bartender was cordial, even to the female megaphone TOTAL - 3 stars...not our favorite bar in town RELATED - Exploring Provincetown?

By far our favorite bar in Ptown - I feel most comfortable here as a trans guy looking to party and people watch vs spaces that are almost entirely cis gay men. The best people I've met just randomly on a night out have been folks I've met here. Solid drinks, tunes, pool, and a much beloved air hockey table. What more could you ask for? read more

Love the Underground Bar, go everytime in Ptown !! Fun place with great people. They have pool table, air hockey, ping pong table and DJ around 10pm. Place gets packed later but always a great crowd and great time and the bartenders are always great!! Went this Saturday, all my friends who had never been loved it and we will definitely be back next time in Ptown read more

Never saw a bigger mess behind a bar in my life. Was in Sunday night the staff behind the bar had zero idea what they were doing and it looked like absolute chaos. Whenever you eventually got an over priced drink it was awful. Place felt disorganized and unsafe. Never going back. read more

Re: ADA Discrimination - Hello, the contact form on your site isn't working, so I left a Google review in December that went unanswered. I wanted to follow up to let you know a report has been filed with the Massport Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Compliance. On the evening of 12/28/2024 a doorman at your establishment refused to allow me entry with my registered, trained, service animal, despite being informed of his service animal status and that he performs tasks related to my disabilities. There were multiple witnesses, all of whom are listed on the report. I urge you to train your staff on disability accommodations and service animal laws lest you be hit with a lawsuit for discrimination. read more

Bartender over charged us severely. Do not recommend. And when confronted the next day she gave us attitude. read more

Truly a horrifyingly racist experience here when interacting with the female bartender working on 8/7/2022. The bartender was extremely rude to the group I was with, most of which are people of color, and kept reminding us to tip her (which of course we were intending to do) and wanted us to pay her upfront before we even got our drinks. Never have I witnessed such blatantly racist behavior; she refused to acknowledge our presence all while she tended politely to the white women at the bar. She also said nasty things very loudly to the white women about our group, saying that she was intending on giving us shots of water instead of liquor. Once I mentioned to her that it was an inappropriate thing to say within ear-shot of our group, she immediately got defensive and kicked us out. It's this type of discrimination that just serves as a reminder that PTown is only meant for a certain type of person and that we have a long way to go because people like this bartender. read more

The Underground Bar - neon signs in the window - Bars Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

Came here with a friend after walking up and down commercial street to find a bar. We got there around 10:30 PM in which the bartender told us that it gets busier around 11 PM. We grabbed a couple of drinks and a few shots for typical bar prices. Music was danceable and I liked how they was a ping-pong table, pool tables and an air hockey table available for use. Overall good experience and would come again. read more

Not my normal bar to go too but was in town and wanted to try something different. The bartenders were so friendly, helpful, considerate and cared about each guest. Normally they are all about making you drunk (well it is a bar) but they do get you drinks but watch out for everyone. Yes the bar is cash only but the prices were reasonable and will defiantly go back when I'm in town next. read more

The Underground Bar - a lamp on the bar counter - Bars Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

Whoever had a negative experience here is likely a jerk. Alyssa and Michelle are outstanding bartenders, and the drinks are reasonable. It is a great dive bar if that is your thing, with pool tables, a ping pong table and Pabst tall boys. Do yourself a favor and check it out! read more

This is my spot. I have so much fun here dancing, flirting with staff, harassing my enemies, and making out with random men. I always have the time of my life! No one will ever get me down at the underground. When I die, bury me underneath the smoking section. read more

If you want to be treated like crap (read into it) and over pay for drinks while watching the locals get theirs, then is the place for you... unbelievable - This is home town bar (which is fine) but if you're not a regular they take advantage. BTW: don't leave you drink either, they'll take that too. If you're. avoid at all cost. read more

The DJ was good, but the place is a dump. Very low ceiling in a basement and gets overwhelmingly hot and stuffy by 11pm. Seems like a place that if a fire ever broke out would be a disaster trying to get out. The bouncers were rude, overly aggressive and won't let you step out to get fresh air which is rough. I wouldn't go again. read more

The service consists of 2 bartenders or bar backs nothing more than a can or bottle to choose from.They got rid of the mixologist they had when offering a dozen plus mixed cocktails....place has gone downhill read more

I was just in P-town with friends for the weekend. We stopped by The Underground while the sun was still out and got chatting with the bartender, Jenna. One of us got sick because of some bad seafood we had earlier in the day and Jenna put together a care package for her: towels, plastic bags and a bottle of water. She really went above and beyond, and she definitely didn't have to. Also, the jello shots were surprisingly good. read more

This is my FAVORITE bar in Provincetown whomever has had a problem here is likely a Karen. I couldn't help but read that Katie D stated that there are no fire exits? There are literally 2 exits right in front weirdo.. The bartenders are amazing & can make you absolutely anything no cheap "shot" list that are always comprised of all juice & no liquor the DJ's are amazing & it's a welcoming environment to all. If you're in Ptown stop by for dancing & fun. They have pool tables, air hockey & ping pong so so fun!! read more

Awesomely fun place that has no cover! It's a pretty big bar type environment which seemed divided into thirds. One third there were pool tables and air hockey. The next third there's the bar with stools and standing room. And the last third was a space for dancing. The DJ was pretty good on a Saturday night with mixes of new and old songs. The crowd was mostly 20-30s. There were 2 bachlorette parties and members of the LGBT community mostly which was a good change. I highly recommend this place (closes at 1am) for a fun night out in Provincetown if you are looking to dance, play games, or just drink. read more

Walking through the area and came across this bar. Wasn't sure what it would be like from the outside, but was nicely surprised when we walked in. Pool tables, ping pong, and popcorn, what more could a person ask for? Hmm, I guess alcohol. There's that, too! Michelle (I apologize if I'm not spelling that correctly) was the bartender that day, and she was great. She was attentive, and when asked, gave great suggestions to local spots to visit. I'm not a bar person, but, I loved this one. Great bartender, and laid-back atmosphere, that's why I'm giving this place 5 stars. read more

The Underground Bar - Good times. - Bars Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

Music is great but if you want a safe place, the security guys do not take care of you there. Instead they feel it's okay to grab women aggressively instead of saying what they need to say. First time there, and last. Guy in the bucket hat- you know who you are. read more

Average bar in ptown. We were there at 8pm and there were 2 other people in the bar at that time. Bartender was friendly. Played ping pong for free and ate some free popcorn. Maybe 8pm is too early to go but I'm 48 so my days of not going out until 10pm are well over. Drinks are pricey but they are everywhere in ptown. We ordered 6 shots and one beer and it came to $100. which I think is a bit over the top. Ping pong was fun though read more

Cool cozy vibe. Two poll 1 ping pong table and air hockey table and striper pile on dance floor. Bartender was nice, quick friendly service for off season. Quiet but fun read more

Don't waste your time! 10 of us were in P-town for a bachelorette party & came here for drinks. One of the bartenders who had a major attitude problem to begin with. Ended up coming around the bar & chasing one of my friends outside saying she's gonna kick her ass. She proceeded to push everyone in her path then push my friend down on the outside stairs straddling her with her arm back ready to throw a punch I grabbed her arm & said stop she's pregnant. The bartenders response was "I really don't care" she was an absolute monster of a person and any place that employs that kind of person will never get a penny from me. It was disgusting, distasteful & absolutely uncalled for. read more

Terrible bar. Staff is not good. Music is ok but the front staff really does not do a good job and follow policies

I really like this place. The people that work there are really nice. Great drinks,atmosphere & lots of entertainment (pool table, air hockey and tons of tv's!!!). check it out! read more

Extreme disappointed, there was a large group of us that arrived at 4pm. We waited until 425 and no signs of it opening. This was Saturday evening and several others arrived and left too. Owners watch your employees read more

Went to this bar off season on a very slow night Sept 11th. My friend and I were celebrating and throwing money around like it was paper. We had several rounds prior and were tipping heavily (I used to be a bartender) We met a friendly couple from Ireland and offered to buy a round. I put $60 on the bar and said we would like a round. A total of 3 drinks were ordered (2) shots and one beer so tops $24?? A good song came on and we went to dance. When we came back, there was no change on the bar. I asked the bartender where my change was and she very nastily handed back a $20. So I proceeded to question her and said how much was the round and where was the rest of my change. When I demanded my change back so I could decide how much I wanted to tip, she became IRATE and started screaming GET OUT...GET OUT....YOU ARE STEALING MY MONEY!!!! Umm, no, you are stealing MY money. The manager or no one else tried to sort anything out and we just left. The bartender was the MOST unprofessional bar employee I think I have ever encountered and that is saying a lot! SUE K...I think we must of had the same bar wench! read more

We stopped in here because it did not looked crowded. And when we came down the nondescript stairs and walked in I was pleased to see that bar was well decorated, clean, and air conditioned. My partner in crime had a hard cider that the bar tender recommended and which was very good by her account and I stuck with water because I was driving us home. We also played a round of pool (free before 6pm), which was fun but it took a while for us to finnish our game since we both stink at pool. I won by a small margin and with that we headed home. I will happily come back here next time we are in P-Town. read more

The Underground Bar - a poster for the underground - Bars Near Me - Provincetown, Massachusetts

Bartenders on point systematically attending to people, drinks were good and fairly average priced if you're going to go to a bar to dance. Dance floor was fun, stripper pole says "use at your own risk" lol. I like that the games are free. Music was on point classic 2000s hits for the current 25-35 yo crowd. Good time all around! read more

Great place to sit back and relax. I like it, because I like friendly bartenders and a cozy atmosphere. Didn't seem like the kind of place to party the night away...but pool, ping pong and a fun jukebox is enough to make me happy. read more

This is a great spot in PTown with live music, pool tables, and some quick bartenders! It's a lively vibe and my friends and I always have a great time here! The crowd is a mixed bag, but I always find myself chatting with someone new! This is a must stop for a night out in PTown. read more

Good bar with decently priced drinks. Bartenders are really nice as well. Had a great experience the first time. The problem was with a security guard who was incredibly cold and disrespectful. I used the bathroom with my girlfriend (we made some new friends and were in and out in minutes to return to our little circle). My mistake, I missed the sign that said one person in the bathroom at a time. We walked out and the security guard was waiting to kick us out. I understand that there are rules that were unintentionally broken - but there was no need for the disrespect and harshness. We had just ordered drinks that we weren't allowed to finish and security was treating us like we were incapacitated. When in reality, it was early in the night and an honest mistake was made. It's a shame that we traveled to ptown to enjoy our time with new friends and it was cut short. read more

So. Much. Fun. Went here on a bachelorette. 7 ladies in the late 20s danced their butts off to awesome music! Get here around 9/9:30 and the dancing starts at some point. Closes at 1! Great bartenders too - Dey da best. read more

With the exception of everyone not knowing my name... this bar is the "Cheers" bar of Ptown! Michelle was our bartender tonight, she's very attentive and super friendly! The bar had a pool table, air hockey , ping pong and a couple of TV's. The bathrooms were spacious and clean. They have a nice dance floor area and a DJ. The drinks are reasonably priced. I would of given it 5 stars but being that the bar is under ground (no pun intended) it does have that basement stinch to it. After a few drinks, who cares!! Lol a must go to if your in town. read more

Great game set up. Free pool, ping pong and air hockey. Cheap beer/shot specials and a great sound system. Love the lounge chairs and couches as well. Location of the ping pong table is a little weird, it's right in the middle of the place. Windows don't let in natural light; but hey, that's what we signed up for right? read more

was a cool place to hang until i left my card over night one time. i retrieved it the following day and asked if i was charged a tip (for the one beer on the tab). the bartender informed me i was not, so i bought a beer and tipped $10 (200% tip) for the inconvenience. Turns out, the bar did charge a tip on the initial transaction, too (noticed once final transaction posted a few days later). read more

the bouncer was incredibly rude! he tried to take a bunch of Massachusetts real IDs and claimed they were fake. we had to yell and demand our drivers licenses back and then they banned us from the place. one girl in front of me even had to call the police before they would give hers back. read more

We had a great time here. Went two straight nights in a row. Atmosphere is relaxed and just straight up fun. No pretense, no attitude,just people looking to dance be have a good time and we did. read more

Thank you so much to The Underground Bar. We recently hosted our Opening Party for our PTown Soccer Classic there over Columbus Day weekend. Everyone that attended had a fantastic time. The bar staff was super friendly, the atmosphere was fantastic. In our 23rd year hosting this tournament, we were not disappointed and will be back once again! read more

Great beers and friendly staff. We came in the off season and it wasn't super crazy but still a good amount of people. Played a few rounds of pool and had a great time. Juke box has a great selection. New favorite bar. read more

no cover, Cheap beer. Free popcorn. Amazing juke box. Ping pong, pool, air hockey. Friendly people. Okay, so theres no view, but the is the most fun bar in town! Can't wait to return! read more
